“The Sound of Music” (1965)
Some movies are cinema classics and others are must-sees beloved by the whole family. “The Sound of the Music” is both. The movie is based on the Broadway musical of the same name, and stars the iconic and legendary Julie Andrews as Baronin Maria von Trapp, a young woman who takes on the role as the governess of seven children under the strict watch of a military father.
